The massive tablet-could be considered-more of a portable TV than an actual tablet, given its size and dimensions. Here are all the initial details that Samsung revealed in a press release on its blog. The Galaxy View sports a huge 18.4-inch screen with a Full HD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. Since it’s meant to function like a TV that you bring from room to room in your home, it has a handle on the back and a built-in stand. The stand moves into two positions, one presumably-for viewing on a table top and another for watching shows with the device on-your lap or while in bed. Samsung popped in two 4-watt speakers-to make-the audio experience better than that of your average tablet.

Samsung’s offering the View with either 32 or 64GB of storage, though a MicroSD card slot should open up more space for video, if you’re the kind of person who downloads instead of streaming.-The 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera is presumably for video calls. Samsung claims that its 5,700mAh battery should keep the View running for 8 hours of continuous video streaming, which is great news for binge watchers. The whole tablet weighs-2.65 kg, which is lighter than you would expect for a tablet of such great proportions. In the press release, Samsung vaguely mentions that the Galaxy View has a special interface and home screen where all your favorite video streaming apps live. One picture from the company shows a grid format with popular apps like Hulu, Netflix, History, YouTube, Crackle, and more. However, the device is actually running Android 5.1 Lollipop. Samsung further says that the Galaxy View is purely an entertainment device that’s geared toward gameplay, video streaming, and other visual experiences. Pricing and availability have yet to be announced. We’ll keep you updated here as more information becomes available.
